by

Paige DeSorbo will always be part of Ciara Miller’s squad.

Following confirmation that Amanda Batula and West Wilson are dating, their former Summer House castmate clarified how she’s supporting her friend Ciara, whose relationship with West ended last year.

Paige explained to her Giggly Squad podcast cohost, Hannah Berner, that they’re aware of current events and what’s happening in the world. She added, ‘If you don’t laugh, you’ll cry,’ suggesting humor is a coping mechanism.

We’re genuinely close to Ciara, so we’ve been checking in on her and offering support. We fully support her and would never try to profit from something so personal and painful.

Paige went on to share “the final thing” she was going to say about the situation. 

She described Ciara as a strong, intelligent, and capable woman, adding that Ciara will share her thoughts and feelings when she’s ready, and she wouldn’t want to speak on Ciara’s behalf.

The recent drama further convinced Paige and Hannah that leaving Summer House was the right choice. Paige was on the show for six seasons, and Hannah joined her for three.

Okay, so Paige finally explained why Hannah and she are done with reality TV, and honestly, it’s chilling! She said it’s legitimately the scariest thing someone can go through. Like, she really meant it – it wasn’t just for show. I’m so glad they’re out of it, and I’m so worried about what they must have experienced to feel that way!

Hannah remembered that when Ciara became part of the show in season five, the original plan was for them to have an immediate rivalry. Luckily, that didn’t happen.

From the moment we met, there was an instant connection. We immediately bonded over mutual affection and a shared love of cats, and I felt a strong connection with her. She’s been incredibly supportive ever since, and I feel the same way about her.

Paige and Hannah have openly expressed their support for Ciara ever since Amanda and West’s relationship was revealed on March 31st.

Paige noticed a lot of people online were surprised by Hannah’s latest Instagram video. The video showed Hannah, age 34, rapping about her period in a sponsored post for Honest flushable wipes, and Paige joked that it made Hannah’s position on the topic very clear.

Paige commented on Ciara’s Instagram, praising her work as host of the season two premiere of Apple TV+’s Your Neighbors & Friends on March 30th, simply writing, “Ur perfect.”

Lindsay Hubbard and Dara Levitan from Summer House showed their support for Ciara, with Lindsay calling the moment “Perfection” and Dara adding that Ciara “nailed it.”

West, 31, and Ciara first began a relationship in summer 2023 before ending it later that year. 

Amanda, age 34, recently went through a breakup, publicly sharing in January that she and Kyle Cooke had separated after being married for four years.

Recent reports suggest West was seeing his ex-girlfriend, Ciara, as recently as three weeks ago, while he’s now dating Amanda. However, a source close to West has denied these claims, stating that he and Ciara haven’t been seeing each other.

The source added, “Not in 2026.”

As a lifestyle expert, I’ve been following Ciara Miller and West Wilson’s relationship, and it’s so lovely to see it blossom! They actually met while filming season eight of Summer House, and by 2023, their connection went beyond the cameras – they officially started dating in real life. It’s always fun to see a showmance turn into something genuine!

However, their romance wouldn’t last long, with the costars breaking up at the end of that year.

The difficult breakup created tension at the summer house for the next two years, as Ciara wrestled with whether to forgive the sports reporter for hurting her and potentially try to rebuild their relationship.

After a rocky four-year marriage filled with disagreements, Amanda Batula and Kyle Cooke have decided to separate, just before the tenth season of their Bravo series airs in 2026.

The longtime acting partners announced on Instagram on January 19th that they’ve decided to separate. They shared a joint statement saying the decision was mutual and friendly, and they asked for privacy and support as they each focus on moving forward and healing.

Amanda and Kyle, who got married in September 2021, shared that while they’ve always been open about their relationship, they’re asking for privacy as they move forward. They appreciate everyone’s kindness and respect during this time.

The show gave viewers an intimate look at the couple’s struggles, essentially watching their relationship fall apart.

Talk about a possible romance between Amanda and West started circulating quickly after the gossip blog Deuxmoi reported on March 5th that the two actors were seen looking cozy together in New York City.

Okay, so everyone was losing it about me and Brittany, and honestly, I just wanted to set the record straight on Watch What Happens Live. I basically said, look, she’s newly single, and this has happened before with people she’s dated – you know, just getting to know each other. We were just having fun hanging out in New York, and I figured, hey, she’s single now, I wanted to show her around a little bit! It wasn’t a big deal, but people seriously blew it out of proportion.

The journalist said, “She’s a close friend – someone I really care about.”

After news spread about a possible relationship between West and Amanda, some of their colleagues spoke up about the rumors.

On March 29th, Carl Radke posted a confused-looking photo to his Instagram Stories. Lindsay Hubbard and KJ Dillard followed suit, sharing similar expressions of confusion on their own social media accounts.

Austen Kroll, another reality TV personality and friend to several cast members of Summer House, appeared to weigh in on the drama. On March 29th, he posted to his Instagram Stories, “Apparently, dating your friends’ exes and eating pasta are both trending again.”

Amanda and West publicly confirmed the rumors in a joint statement posted on Instagram on March 31st.

We never meant to keep our relationship a secret,” they explained in a message on Instagram Stories. “Because things were complicated, and we knew being on a reality show meant everyone would be watching, we needed some time to figure things out privately before talking about it.

We understand this situation has only affected us and we never intended to cause any pain or seem irresponsible,” they said. “We’re grateful for your understanding and respect as we work through this.

Just as news broke about West and Amanda’s relationship, Ciara was seen looking upset with a friend in New York City. She also started getting support from friends and fellow reality stars on social media, as people chose sides in the drama surrounding the love triangle.

Okay, so I’m obsessed with Amanda and Kyle, and I just saw this thing online that’s driving me crazy! Kyle, her husband – well, estranged husband, ugh – posted a selfie with Ciara on Instagram yesterday. It totally felt like he was rubbing salt in the wound, like he was making fun of everything that’s going on with Amanda! I can’t believe he’d do that, honestly. It was posted on March 30th, and I’ve been spiraling ever since!

Paige DeSorbo, known from Summer House, shared a supportive comment on Ciara’s Instagram, simply writing, “Ur perfect.” Lindsay Hubbard and Dara Levitan, who joined the show this season, also showed their support for Ciara, with Lindsay calling the post “Perfection” and Dara adding, “And that’s how you do it.”

Two days after Amanda and West went public, Kyle slammed his former friend for moving in on his ex.

He told journalist Adam Glyn in a TikTok video posted in April that he felt deeply betrayed. “He ended our friendship suddenly,” he said. “I just don’t understand – what happened to looking out for your friends?”

Kyle also insinuated West’s intentions were calculated.

He told Adam that West is skilled at understanding his audience and knows exactly how to appeal to women. People are impressed, thinking West has really turned things around, but it’s clear he was intentionally flattering them as part of a calculated strategy.
